It's a lisp. Speech therapy.

You may want to look into speech therapy if you're concerned about your speech.
How do you pronounce your S? Do you stick your tongue out when you say it? I'm not a therapist, but I believe that children grow out of that phase and then pronounce S by closing their teeth and putting the tip of the tongue against them to make the Sss sound.

Just put your front teeth together, pull your tongue back away from them and blow air through. Try "squishing" your tongue against your top molars but not touching your front teeth. You can move your tongue around in your mouth (don't let it touch your front teeth) until you get the "S" sound you like best...Viola "Sssssss" Practice with words like "Snake" or "Seriously."
Good luck! You can do it, you just have to train your mouth how (and lose the bad habits that you were using before).

Maybe you are tongue-tied. Surgery will correct it.
